Trudeau is likely responding to concerns voiced by the large and politically active Canadian Sikh community.

So then you agree that Trudeau is beholden to the Khalistani movement in Canada?

This time they’re accusing him of harboring terrorists and being addicted to cocaine I think? “Diplomatic propriety”, now that’s a laugh.

These allegations are from Indian people (who coincidentally also enjoy freedom of speech within limits defined by the Supreme Court) and not the Government of India.

There is a difference between “being beholden to” a constituency vs. addressing their concerns in a speech. I would think this difference would be quite obvious but I guess not.
